Dea Latis, a UK-based women and beer interest group led by Annabel Smith, is leading a vital new study to delve further into women’s attitudes and behaviours relating to the world of beer.

Following their trailblazing 2018 report – The Gender Pint Gap – which ignited industry-wide conversations, Dea Latis’ subsequent research in 2019 highlighted a concerning gender gap in beer consumption and the prevalence of misconceptions about beer.

In 2023 Dea Latis was successful in securing a third tranche of funding from The Brewers’ Research and Education Fund (BREF) to conduct further YouGov research and benchmark attitudes against their previous findings.

So, since 2019, have women’s attitudes and perceptions about beer changed? How has a global pandemic, and factors such as the rise of the #MeToo movement impacted the way women view beer and pubs?

“The previous studies have sparked essential conversations, but our latest research marks a new milestone in understanding the shifts and developments in women’s relationship with beer in the aftermath of the pandemic,” commented Smith, founder and research lead at Dea Latis. 

“This fresh data will provide valuable insights to guide the industry towards refocusing on creating a more inclusive and diverse beer culture.”

The findings from this latest study are anticipated to challenge existing assumptions, debunk stereotypes, and offer actionable insights for breweries, marketers, and industry stakeholders to foster an environment that resonates with the diverse tastes and preferences of all beer enthusiasts.
